“ridiculous”? “nauseating”? “insulting”? Seriously? They are giving away $200,000 and you are complaining? If solving a few captchas isn’t worth $100 to you, then don’t bother.

The ReCaptcha system that they are using is a free Captcha service provided by google which is used to crowd-source OCR for digitizing books. Sure, some of the scanned words contain math symbols or were scanned poorly, but in that case you can just click the little “refresh” icon in the ReCaptcha box and get a new image almost instantly.
